Elementary ‐ The Weekend ‐ Breaking Up (C0109)
A: Honey, do you have a second?
B: Sure! Are you okay? You seem a bit worried. What’s on
your mind?
A: We need to talk.
B: Okay...
A: I’ve been thinking, and well, I think we need to start
seeing other people.
B: What? Why? I mean, we’ve had our ups and downs,
and we have the occasional disagreement, but we’re happy
together, aren’t we?
A: That’s just it, I’m not happy anymore, Tim. It’s not you,
it’s me. I know that I can be hard to deal with, and you are
a great guy! You are the type of guy that any woman
would kill for!
B: So, what are you saying? You’re breaking up with me
because I’m perfect?
A: Tim, you are too good for me. You deserve someone
who can make you smile and make you happy the way that
you made me happy. Oh, I could say that I’ll be all you
need, but that would be a lie. I know I’d only hurt you, I
know I’d only make you cry.
B: Baby, come on. Don’t do this to me! Whatever it is, we
can work it out. Just give me another chance! I know that
we can get through this, but we gotta stick together! Don’t
leave me.
A: I can’t, Tim. I hope someday you can find some way to
understand I’m only doing this for you. I don’t really
wanna go but, deep in my heart I know this is the kindest
thing to do.
B: Laura...
A: Here are your keys. I’ll send my sister to pick up the
rest of my things next week. I’m sorry, Tim. I wish you all
the best, and I hope that one day we can meet again. I’ll
always love you. Goodbye.
